A girl with apricot-colored shoulder-length hair erged from the water, dripping wet. She affectionately patted the Dewgong beside her and tied her short hair into a braid.
Her communicator lit up. Misty, wrapped in a towel, wiped the water droplets from her face and opened the video call.
On the screen, a burly man with squinting eyes and a dark complexion nodded and greeted her:
"It's been a while, Misty."
Misty smiled. "Is this about the Type Expert Tournant? I've just accepted a position on the Judges' Panel for the Water type."
Brock shook his head.
"It's sothing else. It's about a Squirtle belonging to a Breeding Master."
"Squirtle?" Misty was surprised. "A new Pokédex Holder?"
The burly man crossed his arms, pondered for a mont, and then nodded. "Could be."
"Anyway, I recomnded you to Natsu-sensei…"
Misty blinked. "Natsu-sensei!"
"You know him?"
"I ntioned him to Sister Lorelei before," Misty said with a smile. "That video on the Perish Song Strategy gave a lot of inspiration!"
Brock nodded. "That's great. The group will have more to discuss then."
"What group?" Misty was slightly puzzled.
As she spoke, she glanced down at her mobile phone, and her face imdiately turned red.
To avoid any awkwardness, she had even deleted Red's contact information. She never expected it to co up like this…
Misty's face flushed as she carefully considered her words. "How… how are he and Yellow doing?"
"They're doing well," Brock, the straight-shooting guy, nodded. "We're all followers of Natsu-sensei."
Misty was taken aback, feeling a slight pang of disappointnt, but she shook her head.
No need to overthink it… It's just a casual conversation.
"I'll do my best to summarize Water-type techniques and pass them on to Natsu-sensei."
After a long mont of thought, Misty suddenly smiled.
"Please thank Natsu-sensei for !"
...
[mber 'rmaid of Cerulean' has joined the Chat Group]
Yellow, who has a crush on Red but hasn't confessed yet.
And Misty, who tried to get close but was ignored by the blunt Brock…
Natsu keenly sensed a hint of a love triangle brewing.
Poor Red, probably still training hard at Mt. Silver, completely unaware of the drama unfolding behind his back.
"What a Battler… more like a harem protagonist!" Natsu thought to himself.
Natsu looked up at the sky, silently mourning for Red for three seconds.
Perhaps being a Battler ans surviving through countless love triangles…
Even though he couldn't afford Green's textbooks.
The newly joined Misty had just gifted Natsu-sensei sothing valuable.
"Water Pulse Move manuals?" Natsu raised an eyebrow.
Misty smiled. "This move is perfect for Squirtle, and it includes so of my personal notes."
"If you use a Water Stone or Mystic Water, the training results will be even better."
Natsu's expression changed. "How much would that cost?"
"Not much…" Misty thought for a mont. "Around two or three million Pokémon Coins should cover it."
Natsu's breath hitched.
"I… don't think I need that right now."
"That's fine, you can keep it for now," Misty said with a smile.
"Maybe the Pokémon can train on its own!"
Natsu was stunned.
"Uh… not funny? It's a pretty famous joke in Kanto…"
Misty seed to realize her joke fell flat and awkwardly chuckled.
Natsu's expression turned strange.
His biggest fear was that Misty's words might co true.
And this so-called "joke" had already happened to him several tis…
Natsu sighed deeply.
"Why do I feel like paying off that five million Pokémon Coins is becoming more and more impossible?"
...
After receiving the Water Pulse Move manuals from Misty.
Even though Squirtle could master the move on its own, Misty was a Water-type Expert, and her notes on the move were unique.
As for other Water-type Pokémon Breeding thods, Haunter probably wasn't well-versed in those.
Natsu decided to study them himself and use them to improve Squirtle's diet.
As the night deepened.
Cynthia, who rarely had free ti, called, and the two chatted about recent happenings.
When Cynthia heard that Natsu had caught a Squirtle, she chuckled. "They say a Pokémon's nature becos more like its Trainer over ti."
Natsu glanced at the sneaky Squirtle and shook his head.
"I'm not that much of a goofball."
Squirtle looked innocent, but it was actually scouting the surroundings, morizing every possible escape route.
"Squirtle ヾ(?■_■)"
Gotta gather intel first to make a solid training plan!
Squirtle's approach had always been this cautious.
Moreover, Eevee's strength had left a deep impression on Squirtle.
If even a tiny Eevee could be that strong…
It was hard to imagine how powerful future opponents would be!
Squirtle adjusted its sunglasses.
So, the top priority now was to improve its own strength and keep it hidden…
Only then could it secure victory.
Squirtle narrowed its eyes, a glint of determination flashing within.
A true warrior hides their strength and waits for the right mont to strike!
The night grew late.
Natsu played a few gas with Cynthia.
What was supposed to be a short session ended up lasting until the early hours.
After drinking so Moomoo Milk, Natsu, who never carried fatigue into the next day, fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
The room was pitch black and silent.
Squirtle poked its head out of its shell, planning to sneak out under the cover of darkness, but suddenly froze.
In front of it were two sneaky figures.
"Squirtle?!" Squirtle was shocked.
Had its secret training plan been discovered?!
Eevee and Haunter were equally stunned.
Haunter stared for a long mont before extending a claw toward Squirtle.
"Haunter?" (Wanna join?)
Squirtle was confused.
Wait… I'm not the only one planning to train in secret?
Or have you guys been doing this all along?!
"Squirtle! (T▽T)"
When the ones stronger than you are also working harder, life just isn't fair!
Eevee tapped twice on Squirtle's hard shell, its eyes sparkling with a friendly smile.
"Eevee~!"
Squirtle: ?▽?
...
For once, Natsu wasn't woken up by Eevee stepping on him.
He stretched, feeling refreshed, and got out of bed.
When he lifted the blanket, he wasn't surprised to find Eevee still fast asleep.
The little one looked so peaceful and cute in its sleep that Natsu couldn't resist poking its paw pads, only to have it swat his hand away.
Natsu couldn't help but smile.
But the next second, when Natsu looked at Squirtle, he was startled. "What the—?"
"Squirtle…"
Squirtle, bruised and battered, poked its head out of its shell and waved at Natsu.
Natsu's expression turned odd as he thought about his Pokémon's late-night training habits. He muttered:
"Looks like Eevee really likes you… This is just its way of saying hello…"
Squirtle: ?
"But this is ridiculous!" Natsu said, annoyed.
"Squirtle!" Squirtle nodded tearfully, clearly moved.
"At least use Withdraw!" Natsu scolded, exasperated.
"Take a few more hits, and maybe you'll learn Iron Defense or sothing!"
"Squirtle?! Σ(°△°|||)︴"
I might not be human, but you're definitely sothing else!
